Borrego Springs, CA

We did leave Catalina this morning and drove the 360 miles to Borrego Springs.  We arrived one day early but had no trouble getting in.  We will have to move to our "reserved" site in the morning, but that's no problem at all. 

Both the weather and scenery here are simply beautiful.  We pulled in around 4:30 Pacific Time and the sun was already close to setting behind the mountains, but unlike New Mexico and Arizona, it did not get cold right away.  Stayed warm enough to build our first campfire of the trip.

We will be in this area for 18 days minimum so plenty of time to explore and take a lot of pictures to share.
Just a few here of last night and this morning as the sun was coming up.

Here is the best picture of all taken at 8:00am this morning!

Sorry, I had to do it.
